Santelli's Stages Of Dealing With CNBC Propaganda: Anger, Anger, Anger, Acceptance

Marla Singer's picture




 

With nobody believing anything that comes out of CNBC these days, The only reason to watch the GE subsidiary it seems is for these rare occasions when Rick Santelli lays the smack down on Steve Liesman, and on occasion, goes against the whole propaganda grain (not our words). Fast forward to 1'30" for the fire and brimstone, but watch the whole video for the reason why CNBC will soon institute a 15 second Santelli-malfunction time delay.

Birinyi, Rogers, the Palindrome (SOROS) and Santelli are but a handful of reasons the sound on CNBC  is ever turned on in our shop.  We see enough lunacy on our screens to take any more comedy from the touts.

Better than celebrities death match. I stay tuned.

 

It all depends on the VIX. With low volatility, derivative

positions are harmless an can be owned in huge size.

They only start to matter when vol. jumps and liquidity

dries out.

I love how Steve, once the big bully Rick is cut off from the debate, asks everyone in studio who's right and who's wrong by asking if anyone agrees with Rick. What a pathetic display of insecurity.

BTW interesting dilemma CNBC has here. On one hand Santelli is now most likely THE primary driver of their ratings so giving him his own show would be profitable, on the other hand...you know, people might start listening.

I once saw Liesman in the congressional cafeteria (freedom fries anyone).  Well I'm surprised and drop a Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey you're Liesman and shake the guy's hand.  Then coming to my senses I say to him, "I'm a big fan of Rick Santelli." BTW, the guy is like 5'3'' and projects the image of a unfunny uglier George Costanza.

I was in DC Saturday with a million or so other concerned citizens.  I was, by the way, flying ZH colors.  No one noticed, and I didn't get to Little Miss Whiskey's as I intended.  The politest bunch of protesters DC has seen, probably....ever.  When was the last time a million protesters assembled in DC and sang the national anthem together?  Never, that's when.  The middle class producers know this is their last chance, and standing shoulder-to-shoulder is the order of the day.  No trash left, people thanking Capitol policemen for being there.  Some of them noticed, showing it by returning smiles.  An interesting day.  Anyone care to relate similar protests marked by smiling Capitol police?  The movement is capable of being respectful, but anyone doubting determination is taking the wrong side of this trade.

MSM is reporting the event as drawing "tens of thousands", while video footage of the event clearly shows many times that.  As a libertarian I am well acquainted with being marginalized and/or ignored by the mainstream press.  And while the crowd was certainly not majority libertarian (as far as they knew), in this instance there is substantial evidence (footage) available that reveals the MSM's efforts to marginalize the event, thereby contributing instead to their own continued self-marginalization, continuing apace to the final end of total irrelevance.  Hokahey!

If anyone needs links to overhead video of the crowds or wishes to dispute the numbers, please let me know.

I was also at the gathering and sorry to say but the numbers were more in line to being closer to 100k to 150k. I wish I could say millions but you ask for our honest opinions.

I was also at the Reagan funeral the night prior to cut off. That gathering was much larger.

The key to a respectful protest is keeping those ANSWER folks away.  I've been to more than my fair share as a participant and spectator.  Those A-holes and their tag team partners the LaRouchies really spoil any good time.

Also just as a rule of thumb, if the whole hill with the Washington Monument is packed with folk shoulder to shoulder then thats about 200K, big empty spaces then its more like >100K.

Fly-over counts estimated at 1.5 to 2 million. I was in d.c. for it, and it was a mad house.

Just some more rough estimates, the entire Mall (Capitol to Lincoln) with folk shoulder to shoulder is more or less 1.5 million.  I would say add another 100K for each packed block beyond the Mall area.  I just mention those references for anyone trying to do a mental guesstimate.  Either way I'm quite sure it was massive.

Good on ya for making it up to DC.  Did y'all do any shouting at the White House?  I'd try to get a good few rounds of "stay out the bushes" for protests in front of the WH, was very cathartic.

I wasn't there, but saw some pics. Looks like 1-1.5mm were there, generally speaking.

HOWEVER, and this is pretty important, I was told 2 other events were occurring in DC at the same time - the triathlon and some "Black Families" event.

Not sure how these figures bloated numbers, but it's possible they didn't do much.

I was comfortable, based on overflight pics, with 1mm - it compared with the "Million Man March", I think.

Just an FYI but the picture that shows the aerial shot from the Capitol to the Washington Monument is not from this weekends event. Its been proven false and many websites have removed the picture.

"it doesn't include the National Museum of the American Indian, a building located at the corner of Fourth St. and Independence Ave. that opened on Sept. 14, 2004. (Looking at the photograph, the building should be in the upper right hand corner of the National Mall, next to the Air and Space Museum.) That means the picture was taken before the museum opened exactly five years ago. So clearly the photo doesn't show the "tea party" crowd from the Sept. 12 protest."

SWR -- I was there with you Saturday. I told someone today that two-thirds of the people there you would let baby-sit your children. It was largely a good slice of Americana carrying on-point signs with pleasant interaction with Capitol police. Of course you have 5% who are bit of whack-jobs (which the MSM loves to highlight), but still absolutely no misbehavior. Even jamming people on and off the Metro, everyone was courteous.

I am probably among the last people you might expect to show up at something like this (flew in just for the day - even my family was surprised), but unless some of us quieter folks start raising our voice (and just show up) about the wreckless government dependency agenda, our country is toast.

Yes, every media source has a bias. But Media Matters hasn't made hundreds of millions of dollars with the side-show demagogue act. Bias with integrity vs. bias with no integrity. And the gas-bag also has a very personal interest in destroying Obama and any possibility of an increase in taxes for the richest Americans. Me thinketh the King of Gas may loveth his wallet as much as his country.

To SWRichmond IV: Your "politest" protest got you nowhere. Thank you for picking up the trash and the "smiling Capitol police". Your protest, although well intended, got no media coverage, and wasn't mentioned by any elected officials. You have no clue how to protest anything. I suppose you are "outraged" ??? Go back to watching your 42" flat panel in your McMansion. You accomplished nothing.

You can find the link on youtube if you search for "Rick Santelli" and order them by "most recent".

I love Rick. You can just tell that after one of his rants, that someone takes him in a back room and threatens his job or something. He toes the corporate line for awhile, but then Steve Liesman says something that pushes him over the edge and he's off to the races again. Awesome.

I completely agree. They always block my posts over there. For a "liberal" site, they are very conservative as to what you can and cannot say. I especially love when I say anything critical of Obama, all the Obama groupies come out of the wood work to subjectively and blindly bash me.*

They actually have a few decent articles from time to time, you just have to avoid getting sucked into the comment page, or you could be there for hours.

I have broken our world down to this theory.

95 % of people are stupid. Period.

4 % of people are "intelligent" but they routinely get sucked into subctive, partisan debate where knowledge and reason are invariably crushed.

1% (Probably a lot smaller) of people are intelligent, and for the most part are able to wrap their head around the big picture.

*I have noticed a few Obama backers who are starting to break rank on their undying, blind loyalty for the man. Could this be a start of something bigger? Subjectively, I hope so. Objectively, probably not.

Additionally, I remember all through the campaign (really starting in Summer of 2007) how Hillary was going to crush Obama, and how Obama was the biggest underdog of all time. However, the msm systematically started sucking Obama's dick and it became painfully obvious he was going to win both the nomination and the presidency. (I don't care what the national polls said in the summer of 2007; national polls have little effect in primary voting) Anyway, as the economy began to collapse I also noticed the averge American finally began to be upset at the establishment as a whole. That's great, but they got upest at the wrong people and backed the wrong candidate.

I really don't think its any coincidence that GE (MSNBC/CNBC), AOL Time Warner (CNN), Viacom (CBS), and Disney (ABC) backed Obama heavily, and that he has turned out to run a pro-establishment administration. This should have been a red flag from the beginning.

I think that's enough for now.

more like this

0.5% -----> stupid

0.49% ----> " intelligent "

"95 % of people are stupid. Period."

I disagree. 99% confirm hence they are capable of being irrational to a rather high degree. People do stupid things not because they are stupid but because they are humans. And humans are far away from controlling their conformist nature.

p.s. Can't believe its Monday.

 

"HUMAN lack of power in moderating and checking the emotions I call servitude. For a man who is submissive to his emotions does not have power over himself, but is in the hands of fortune to such an extent that he is often constrained, although he may see what is better for him, to follow what is worse.

It doesn't take much intelligence to point out that the rest of humanity is much more ignorant than you are, just a sense of superiority and self-importance.

It does take a lot of intelligence to realize that we can all learn something from someone else if we take the time to listen.

I have learned a lot of things from people that I thought didn't know jack shit, but in spite of their ignorance they were able to teach me that I was an arrogant, self-absorbed bastard.

No one is born with infinite knowledge. Everything we know we have learned from someone else and from life experiences.

If you think you are a 0.01%'er now, were you a 0.01%'er when you were three or sixteen. Was there something you didn't know yesterday that you now know today. Is there something that you don't know today that will become illuminated tomorrow.

Intelligence is knowing that no matter how smart you are there are still plenty of things to learn from other people, from your own conclusions and life experiences, and from the ability to pass on knowledge to other people.

What I know couldn't fill a thimble, what I don't know and will never know makes up the universe.

You should remember he got canned in late March for his dogged determination to not let the 100% payback of GS phony counterparties with not ever real cash through Government-assisted TP ripoff by GS embedded clones. Like a Mexican drug war victory, the competition was dealt with (LEH to hell and Barclays and BSC to jpmCHASE (David Rockefeller). Did anyone notice that Ford is the only survivor of auto industry and most of their corporate bond deals were GS sole underwritten?..old money and the FED Central Banking clan..ring arond the rosy credit..the survivors pick up all the chips..Do the Swiss care with all the world's money in their vaults when the rest go nuclear? Their bomb shelters are a hoot! Truth and consequences keep it real.

As stupidly run the Detroit 'used to be big' 3 were, Ford started getting it's act together about 12-24 months before the others.  Brought in mulally to replace a FORD, mortgaged about everything available & hoarded cash back in mid-late 2007.  Stroke of luck or stroke of genius...sometimes the difference can be negligible.

But if you look at their product lines, they've been moderately simplified; they dumped Jaguar onto Tata (India-based).  Plus, I think their union negotiations were more successful and generally a step ahead of GM or Chrysler.

Business, as in golf, sometimes good to be lucky.

Santelli: The Fed.... sham, irresponsible, horrible. Fixed all the banks and people still can't get loans. I'm done, now you can give me all the propoganda.

Liesman: No Rick, it's not propoganda.

I would love to see Rick Sanetelli and Dylan Ratigan go to Fox and start a new show called the "Wall Street - The Daily Dose of Greed & Corruption."

You've got a better chance of seeing God. Those two rare pair with a pair, straight-shooters would rather eat dogfood under an overpass than enable Fox News to do anything but blow their collective Satanic brains out.

GO SENTELLI! I couldn't watch this at work, but I can watch this now! Wow! Rick is so pissed off at LIESman. Rick is also sick of LIESman consistently and constantly defending Geithner, Paulson, Bush/Obama Administration. I might get slack from some who see social differences between Bush/Obama, but more importantly, monetarily, very similar. "Propoganda."

I have posted on other sites that the worst of CNBC is not the bimbos or the cheerleading that goes with it, but in fact is Steve Liesman the Senior Econ editor who is really a shill for the govt BS that gets fed to us. That bullshit townhall with Geithner was classic Liesman - tongue straight up Geithner's ass. He comes across to the layman as the voice of reason, and yet he is by far and away the most full of shit. Santelli will most likely be looking fo work soon.

I got some bad news for you sunshine, Americans are not great anymore, they are pathetic and have become no different than the rest of the worlds weak minded lukewarm socialist scum of the Earth. Each country now has a small population that understands perfection is not a choice, it's the rule that sustains the perfect rate of return. The market can't sustain losers and losers are in debt. Who's the biggest debtor nation of all time now? What county is not marked by this whore? You can't even separate yourself as an individual from this stinking market no matter what country you provide your labor in because, there is ZERO INTEREST in the value of honest labor. America has no defense for principle and no regard for it's own Constitution. The Red Striped on Old Glory have no claim now, only the shame of the vain cause at hand. We are beast in the field consuming our own flesh and we are encephalitic delusional twits that are so sealed with contempt for honor and integrity, we call for coals upon our head. Woe unto this worthless bunch of paper printing peons. Fear not, judgment shall come unto those sealed by their own delusion and the rate of return for those sealed by perfection shall rise in agreement upon the day of judgment about to call out the wheat from the field. Don't get burned my friends, trade and divest provision, there is no investing in a crop of globalists morons that disregard the order of the Constitution in favor of a worthless principle that has totally aborted it in order to preserve a new world order lie.

Rick you need to move to another network. yes the only reason i watch the jerry springer of wall street TV is for your input; however, i am noticing that you are holding back. you are a trader, F the GE job security. CNBC will wreck you. you need to pull a Dylan Rattigan and either join him or join FOX News. Plus FOX News women are way more smokin hott. Nevertheless, the retail viewers have no idea what you say, nor do they know how to operate from your info. Your passion and value is misdirected, seriouslly...move to another network. CNBC will be worthless with you gone and i will no longer be forced to watch that lame reporting network. 

Dear CNBC, if you just report the boring facts, and stop the commentary that would help. also showing cleavage [FOX copy cat] a bit helpful.
